Yes, we live in a socialist / night-watchman / capitalist / legislative / etc. hybrid structure.

I'm not an absolutist anarchist, and I don't think that undermines my points (given an adult conversation where nuance and context is discussed).

We don't need absolutism across the board here (the "if you legislate against personal atomic bombs, you must be in favour of legislating against people having a 2mm knife blade!" whataboutism fallacy)
